Miners and X. OIL

Representatives of the National Fedora
tion of Miners and Knights of Labor, National
Assembly No. 1856, at Colombus, o., agreed
to issue a circular to the miners
for their approval, embodying a
plan by which both bodies may
work in harmony for the interest of
the miners. The circular suggests conven-
tion at Pittsburg in February, just before the
joint meeting Of miners and operators, and
the Executive Board of both organizations
win meet three days before that convention
to take joint action on the basis of the scale
of prices for the next year.

MORGAN AT THE pEN1TENT1ARY
He is Removed to Columbus in a
Special Car.

He is Removed to Columbus in q
Special Gar.
'Blinky" Morgan was removed from the
Columbus penitentiary, SO quietly that few
knew what was being done, He left
the Jail at the side entrance at 8
o'clock, was driven straight to
the Pittsburg & Western depot in cab, ac.
companied by Sheriff Sheldon, Detec ives
Lohrer, and Risdon of Cleveland, and an un-
known. He and his guards occupied q
special car on the 8:15 train, which
took them over the Pittsburg and Western
to Cuyahoga Falls, and thence, without
changs Of cars, over the Cleveland, Akron and
Columbus road to Columbus.
Extraordinary precautions were taken to
prevent rescue and the wrecking of the
train. A pilot engine went five minutes
ahead of the train and section hand was
posted every half mile along the road. The
blinds Of the coach were all down to secure
the utmost secrecy. The guards were all de-
termined men and heavily armed. The par
ty arrived safely in Columbus at 2:45 p NJ.
and Morgan was at once housed in the Peni-
tentiary.

Raid Unearthed.
John Shenafield, thrifty farmer, resided
with his wife and children in Springfield
township, Mahoning county, o., when John
Morgan aud his guerillas started across the
State. Mr.. Shenafield had no confidence in
the banks, and his misgivings being
shared by bis wife, their savings each year
were converted into gold and silver, and
boarded away by Mrs. Shenafield. At the
time of the Morgan raid the savings amount
ed to $1,000. After the capture of Morgan the
money was allowed to remain where it had
been placed, as the family had no particular
use for it. Mrs. Shenafield was the only one
who knew where the treasure had been
buried, and when she passed away several
years ago the secret died with her.
Two weeks ago Mr.. Shenafield died, and
after the interment the son concluded to look
for the buried treasure. For days he search
ed without success, but finally in the founda-
tion of small building on the farm he un-
earthed an old-fashioned tea-kettle filed to
the brim with gold and silver, amounting to
nearly S., 1000 The money was counted and
placed in a bank.

Contests in Both Houses.
The Democratic members of the House Of
Representatives held caucus on Saturday
evening to nominate candidates for the offices
to be filed at the opening of Congress. While
it is probable that all the present incumbenta
from Speaker Carlisle. down will be contin-
ued, the contests stand as described several
days ago. The Republicans will vote for
Thomas R. Reed, of Maine, for Speaker
In the Senate there may be heated debate
over couple of contests, those of The People
of Indiana VS.. David Turpie and Faulkner vs..
Lucas West Virginia. There will likely be
objections to the administration Of the oath
to either Of these contestees before the Com
mittee of Privileges and Elections has exam
ined the cases. Irregularity in the issuance
of Turpie's certificate and the joint proceed
ings of the Legislature which voted for him
are alleged in the first case, while in the Sec
ond it is held that the term to which Lucas
was appointed by the Governor of West Vir-
ginia has not expired and the Legislature had
no right to elect Faulkner.

Trains Collide in a Fog.

A south-bound freight train on the Chicago
and Alton R. dway collided with an extra
water train, bound north, at Sherman, six
miles north Of Springfield, Illinois. Ths
water train was standing on the main
track at Sherman, and owing to the heavy
fog, the engineer Of the freight train did not
see the headlight until too late, and dashed
into it with terrific force. Both engines and
several cars were demolished, and fifteen
freight cars loaded with merchandise were
burned The engineer Of the freight train

woman Drowned.

Some days ago there was a rumor
reached the city that woman had been
drowned at San Pedro. The story was
that she had stepped off the cars inio
the harbor and disappeared. As there
was no authoritative statement about it
the papers refrsined from publishing
the rumor. Yesterday however all
doubt was put to rest when the body of
the woman came to the surface and was
rescued from its watery grave. Her
name is said to be Jane Prescott. One
report is to the effect that she had gone
down to San Pedro to take q situation in
some family. Last night IL was report
ed that she had been intoxicated ON the

Expectation VS.. Results.

An old merchant tells this anecdote illus
trating the probability of business sales:
A young friend called the other day in high
glee. He was about concluding arrange
mentS with two others to embark in the lob
bling trade and was quite sanguine in his ex-
pectation of results As | did not express
full faith in his anticipations he rather re-
sented my doubts At my suggestion he
took pen and paper and put down, first of
all, his proposed expenses. l could see that
he had not done this before, as he seemed
startled to find that even at the moderate
estimate he had made the total expenses for
rent, clerk hire and living of the several
partners amounted to SS,200
Nov for the amount of business" said I.
ooh, as to that" he replied, 1--WE hope to
sell 100000 worth of goods year,
But what amount of trade do all of YOU
at present influence? Make, now, careful
estimate of the business you can rely upon
with some degree of certainty" He did SO,
and to his surprise it did not quite reach
$125, GOO
''Now, what profit can you average upon
that" After some debate it was fixed al
~ per cent-s9, 375.
'Now, what shall we call the losses"
The latter was settled at 20 per cent On
sales, amounting to 81, 1875, leaving the net
income $3.50, or 81, $50 less than enough to
pay his estimated expenses. The Young man
left, proposing to show the estimate to his
associates, and after figuring awhile without
arriving at a more satisfactory result. they
abandoned the undertaking. There is nc
doubt that if all, when about to embark in
trade, would thus boldly look at the figures.
instead of closing their eyes and hoping for
the best, there would be fewer failures among
business men and less complaint that trade
is overdone. Detroit Free Press,
